Mission

Our mission is to make vocational and educational opportunities accessible to women and girls from the most marginalized communities around the world. We believe providing these opportunities to women is the solution to ensuring long term climate, economic and social resilience for rural communities globally. Through this mission Barefoot College International seeks to ensure that every woman and girl has the skills and knowledge she needs to be a catalyst for change to the benefit of herself, her family and her entire community.
